Architextures

All too often, architects and designers spend hours searching for textures and materials to represent their visions. This struggle takes many forms: from scrolling through Google, Pinterest, and databases in search of the perfect texture, to manually creating one over the course of several hours, or even days. In either case, the result is frequently painful, and rarely perfect. Architextures was born to fix this problem. The Architextures digital interface allows you to create new materials quickly, easy, and efficiently, using a range of pattern and parameters. With an ever-growing range of textures and materials in our library, users can generate their ideal patterns, dimensions, joints, tones, colours, and much more. The images can then be downloaded as a basic texture map, bump map or CAD hatch. Architextures works through a simple, interactive tool that allows users to edit an existing texture on the site, or create a new texture from scratch. In creating a texture, users are given control over all the key features of the material's appearance via a properties toolbar to the left of the screen. The toolbar is divided into three key areas for the user to control: Pattern, Tiles, and Joints. In the Pattern settings, users are offered 11 patterns to recreate popular patterns and motifs in the industry, with additional parameters to control the angles of lines, and the number of columns and rows in a pattern. In the Tiles settings, users can experiment with the materiality of the texture, with a vast collection of stones, bricks, woods, concretes, metals, and solid fills, all of which can be adjusted by brightness, contrast, hue, and saturation. Users also have full control over the width and height of the tiles, and even the aesthetic of whether the tiles appear handmade or machine-cut. In the final Joints settings, users can choose the material used to join the tiles, as well as its colour and sizing.
